Lagoon 42, Bilby

“Through our travels, we’ve met other Lagoon 42 owners who bought their boat through other brokers (overseas)… You don’t know how good you’ve got it until you meet someone who got much less. A big thank you! Everything we wanted on the boat was delivered. Everything works & we were shown how it works. Any failures are ours due lack of familiarity or faulty memory.” – Liz and Rob – Lagoon 42, Bilby

Lagoon 50, Themis

Lagoon 42, Sabella

“”Lagoons are boldly angular in shape, and we thought that was fantastic. It creates that space inside and looks great on the outside. And the sailing performance for a production catamaran … is very very good.

When we arrived in Les Sables-d’Olonne John had this rockstar entrance… surreal does not even begin to describe how it felt.” ” – Aaron and Lara Jones – Lagoon 42, Sabella

“A big tick to TMG… They’ve been fantastic with their support, if we’ve had any issues we get in touch with them and they go out of their way to help us so they’ve made buying this boat in Europe such a pleasant experience and yeah, I’ll give them a 10 out of 10, it’s been great… If you’re going to buy a Lagoon buy it from TMG. ” – Liz and Rob – Lagoon 42, Bilby

Antics on the Flybridge

“It’s very very easy, so much space, we just had 4 couples for 5 days, it was very chilled out and relaxed.

The flybridge is such a big beautiful place with a view, its elevated and we put permanent clears around ours so you can use it anytime, day or night, windy or raining, it doesn’t matter. You can sit up there have lunch, have dinner. We call it the first class lounge, you can’t go wrong.” – Anthony and Seryn Ryan – Lagoon 630MY, Antics

“I couldn’t fault the TMG network and what we were able to do and how everyone was easy to get on with. The actual handover period… was fantastic. We sat on the boat for the first day and went through everything. It was a great learning experience, and then out sailing the next day. Making sure everything worked properly. It was a fantastic thing to do and I can’t speak highly enough about that actual process.” Paul Brown – Lagoon 42

Happy Lagoon 46 owners

Our favourite thing about our boat is the places it can take us, we get to see a lot of the east coast that most people can only imagine to see and to be able to access it with a boat it’s just fantastic.” – Matt Doncan – Lagoon 400S2, Espresso

The pair have owned numerous Lagoons and love their current Lagoon 440. – Greg and Sue Harding” – Lagoon 440, Blue Pointer

Lagoon 52F, Infinity II

There is more enjoyment in a sailboat in that the enjoyment is in the journey as much as it’s in the destination. That to me makes it a totally different experience.

The advantage of a flybridge to me is the fact you are that much higher off the surface of the water, you can get better vision all around, a greater sense of being on-top of the whole thing and I do enjoy being out in the sun most of the time.” – Jeff D’Albora – Lagoon 52F, Infinity II

Just do it! A European Launch Story

“We looked around quite a bit, and investigated the opposition! The 42ft is the right size for us, and she has a good feel when under sail. The combination of layout and space was just what we were looking for. Importantly, the Lagoon 42 sails well short handed. The 42 is a very, very nice boat. I’d be hard pressed to fault it,” said Drew.

Why life is better lived on a Lagoon

Greg and Sue Harding, owners of a magnificent Lagoon 440, Blue Pointer, are the first to admit they are Lagoon tragics. “Our love affair with Lagoon started from day one, even though our first Lagoon was really a project boat.”

Paul Rogers is one of the founders of Lagooned in Oz “…the best thing about our lifestyle is not the boat or location, it’s the people. There is a whole community of Lagoon owners, and the Lagoon events have connected us with so many wonderful people.” – Paul Rogers, Moor RnR

Lagoon 380 Seabreeze

Ticketyboo delivered

“The entire TMG team were really good. In the initial stages, John gave great advice and helped spec the boat, looking back it was all very valuable… From our first enquiry, through specification, order, to delivery and after-sales, TMG have been terrific to deal with. Ordering our Lagoon 40 was no small decision and a perfect delivery reassured us from the start,” Mike Pain.

Mediterranean highlights and advice

After three years in the Mediterranean Peter says he could definitely have spent another three… But unfortunately, everyone has time restraints… There aren’t many islands in the Mediterranean Peter hasn’t visited, with an impressive list of 47 in Greece alone… Peter talks about his favourite places and what he got up to in the winter.

Sailing Sabella – A Lagoon 42 Adventure

“I wanted a big, spacious saloon that you could see through for transparency. I wanted it to feel like a home, like a floating apartment. I thought regarding the kids, on the 42 specifically, we can steer the boat from here on the same level, it’s not a separate area … and the entire thing can be enclosed without it being a visual and physical barrier,” said Lara.

Waters Family Update

‘Lagoons are perfect as a live-aboard option. They have plenty of room, everyone in the family has their own space. Tyler can be off in her room, Max on the trampoline burning off energy, Darren keeping on top of the maintenance. The boat never feels cramped,” says Kristy.

“Living the dream” on board a Lagoon 380

Every day is magical when you’re living on board. Take this morning, for example … the water was like a millpond, delivering a special sunrise. This was the view from our cabin as we woke up. We chose the 380 for her spacious interior. She’s super easy to sail, well suited for the two of us to live and work on board comfortably and she has plenty of indoor and outdoor living areas,” Said owners, Justin and Kelly.

Lagoon 39, Zephyr

“Ross was super – he went through everything.

We’ve never had that; going through everything was a huge positive.” – Graeme and Linda Hubbard – Lagoon 39, Zephyr

“I think it’s a fascinating and great way to live … so many people put things off until retirement and then can’t achieve their dream when they get there.

I’m happy with my choice.

It stretches you a bit and you juggle a lot of things, but with good people like the team at TMG, you can follow your dream.” – Drew Hakin, Adèle 1

Wonderful memories sailing Sabella

“From our 6 months onboard, there are so many personal highlights. From a sailing and cruising perspective, I can hardly put our time in the Balearics into words. Formentera in particular, some of the anchorages there once the crowds had gone for the day were absolutely stunning. Seeing our young girls develop was something special.”

A truly unique Sailaway adventure

Steve is as passionate about Lagoon and Sailaway offers people access to a ‘wow factor’ as part of their holiday – “It’s in reach for people to enjoy a bit of that business class feel with their friends and family, in an everyday way. With the Lagoon, we can live out our passions for sailing, nature and the environment. I have had confidence in Lagoon from the moment I first stepped aboard.”

Cruising adventures onboard El Gato

“The comfort is just amazing. When we were in rough seas sitting in the cockpit in the monohull, we could touch the water. But in the cat, you’re sitting on top of the flybridge – with 2m following seas – she’s solid, she’s stable, she’s just fantastic in the water,” said Lagoon 440 owners.

Sailing Sabella April Update

Lagoon 42 owner Aaron tells us “…living on Sabella is wonderful. Whilst much smaller than an Australian house, we each have our own space and it doesn’t feel cramped.”

Home sweet home is a Lagoon 420

Bob and Margaret Kennedy have called their Lagoon 420 home for 6 years, “We thought it was terrific. In comparison, our other boat was ‘camping’, but this was ‘home’. We found a little-used boat in very good condition – we lucked out with the perfect boat.”

The Jones Family heads for warmer climates

“There are so many wonderful memories from this short time at sea – sunsets, dolphins, peaceful night watches – this way of life is just spectacular and really feels right for our family. We pinch ourselves each day and wonder when we’ll wake up from the dream,” Lagoon 42 owners the Jones family.

Is this the best Lagoon 450 ever?

This Lagoon 450F was Johns 3rd out of 4 Lagoons “You want to buy a production boat, built in a factory in series. You get a properly designed and built boat. Compared to other 40ft boats a 40ft Lagoon will have the most volume. A signature of Lagoon is its vertical windows. The advantages are you have ample headspace in the saloon, plenty of light and 360 degree views, whilst keeping the sun out.”

The Jones Family take delivery of their new 42

“We’re in Les Sables-d’Olonne and we’re taking the boat out for a test sail and I’m floating on a cloud, I’ve got no idea what’s going on! It’s the most stunning day – in January no less! The weather was fine and the wind almost calm, but regardless she made 3 knots in 5 knots of breeze. What a clever little thing she is!”

HAPPY DAYS ON ZEPHYR

“As soon as we got onboard, we were sold— the sliding doors were brilliant, the big glass window right by the kitchen sink—it was just like an apartment,” said Lagoon 39 owners.

PACIFIC HIGHLIGHTS WITH THE WATERS FAMILY

With only limited yachting experience between Darren and Kristy, their Lagoon 500 is fortunately “very user friendly and it was easy to pick up”. To anyone considering following their lead, Kristy is quite clear — “Do it!”

Don McIntyre- A Lifetime of Global Adventure

Don McIntyre, Global Adventurer and Explorer, Life in Tonga with his Lagoon 450, Golden Globe, Royal Yacht Club Nomuka. Don describes the boat as “perfect, fantastic, incredible”— this “is the most fun” and “living on-board is like an apartment on the water”.

The liveaboard life Lagoon style

The Atkinsons love their catamaran. They had the design in mind for 20 years, and even though they weren’t actively looking, when they saw the Lagoon 400, they found the exact layout they had been dreaming of.

LAGOON 52F – HANDOVER COMPLETE!

Working with TMG was a positive experience for John and Tania, “the team were always on hand and did everything they could for them throughout the process,” said the Lagoon 52 owners.

Lagoon 42 modified for quadriplegic sailor

‘When you’re in a wheelchair there’s a lot of places you never see or you can’t get to. They’re just not accessible. Yesterday when we were out we sailed past some of those places that I have never seen before,’ Cliff said. For many sailors the freedom of the sea is one of the attractions. For Cliff, it’s life changing.

A comfortable catamaran of the latest generation made for the high seas.

The catamaran LAGOON 46 combines easy sailing with plenty of comfort. Relaxed, effortless sailing paired with comfortable accommodation are the highlights of the LAGOON 46 catamaran. The French yacht designers placed value on an elevated helm station and on the three spacious lounge areas on this catamaran. The LAGOON 46 catamaran comes with 3 or 4 cabins and offers enough space for up to eight guests plus crew.

More information about the TOP brand Lagoon.

Design Exterior

The helm station on the flybridge of the LAGOON 46 is arranged in the middle, which enables more space for crew members e.g. when trimming or chilling. A self-tacking jib makes maneuvering easy.

The LAGOON 46 is a powerful, seaworthy catamaran. She convinces with her extraordinary features:

• The larger sail area with improved sail capacity
• A self-tacking jib, electric winch and a shorter boom
• The large headsail triangle ensures better load distribution on the catamaran and an even larger selection of headsails.

The catamaran offers convertible cockpits at the front and in the aft. You will be indulged on and below deck with a great deal of style and comfort. For example with an inviting outdoor lounge with plenty of space for a cozy get-together and a sought-after place to sunbathe. As usual with Lagoon catamarans, great importance was attached to the security onboard.

Design Interior

The LAGOON 46 was not only designed in a perfect and functional style – but the interior also impresses with an enormous amount of space with a lot of feel-good flairs.

She is characterized by a stylish interior, high-quality workmanship and lots of light inlets for a light-flooded, soothing atmosphere. The highest quality of materials was also an important part of equipping this catamaran.

The LAGOON 46 is available with 3 or 4 cabins that can accommodate up to 8 guests. The owner’s version of the catamaran offers three double cabins. Each cabin of the LAGOON 46 impresses with its own en-suite bathroom with separate shower cubicles.

The luxurious private suite is the showpiece of the LAGOON 46 catamaran. It occupies the entire starboard side of the hull. The suite on the Lagoon 46 is furnished with a king-size island bed, a seating area, a large en-suite bathroom with an extra shower cubicle in the foredeck, a separate toilet with sink and plenty of storage space.

The two double guest cabins of the LAGOON 46 are equipped with a bath and shower, along with a wonderful island bed, ample storage space that grant plenty of comfort. The cockpit is connected to the saloon of the catamaran with a large, sliding glass door and impresses with the best ventilation dynamics.

Description

Lagoon’s 46-footer replaces the hugely popular Lagoon 450, one of their best selling models of all time. So no pressure then! She’s off the drawing board of long term partners VPLP and Nauta Design.

For almost 10 years, the 450 raked in the sales for Lagoon across pretty much every continent except Antartica. The first splash was in 2010, and almost 750 were built. Those are big hulls to fill!

Just like its 40- and 50-foot sisters, the mast on the 46 has been stepped aft (a trick that has been used on all sorts of boats like the Prout Snowgoose 37 and even the Gunboat 68) to make give her a smaller mainsail relative to a larger and more powerful self-tacking jib up front- this makes her easier to sail single or short-handed.

• Very comfortable, especially down below with plenty of storage space. And that includes the forward cabin(s).
• They have really improved on the 450 with the hard top bimini on the fly bridge (no more smacking your head). They’ve solved some of those problems with low hanging corners that you get on the 450.
• She sails well in a decent breeze, especially with a Code 0
• The mainsail is pretty easy to manage for this size of boat with that stepped back mast and bigger headsail.
• The finish has improved compared to older models
• The Lagoon 46 is pretty heavy. In light winds you will need to turn the engines on.
• Visibility to the aft corners is not great from the flybridge. You might need to nip onto the side steps to see your sugar scoops when docking. Or install cameras
• The aft cockpit is modestly sized compared to some other 45 footers

Lagoon are not in the business of making  ultra high performance machines – their game is more about getting you from A to B comfortably and in style – a strong competitor to boats like the Leopard 50 and the FP Saba. Having said that, you should comfortably see 8 knots under the twin 57 HP engines and 9 knots with the sails up in a decent breeze. Head off the wind, and you could see speeds comfortably in the teens. When you’ve slung your hook, of course, the Lagoon 46 comes into its own.

Like most cruising cats with keels, she won’t point as high as a monohull or a dagger board cat into the wind- 60 degrees to true is probably your optimum for maximising speed over ground and minimising leeway. (Read our Outremer 51 review if you need a boat for punching upwind with on a regular basis). If you need to point higher on a Lagoon 46, you’ll need to stick the leeward engine on at low revs to keep on track and you should comfortable make 30 degrees to apparent. Off the wind, she moves very nicely, particularly when you unfurl the code 0 in the right conditions.

Like the 450, the Flybridge is going to prove popular on these boats, particularly at anchor and she will sell well into charter I am sure. I’ve chartered a 450F myself, and from a personal point of view I prefer a boom that tucks in close to the bimini so that you can easily get to the sail and reefing lines, and I like to keep an eye on the crew when under way- not always so easy when you are perched on top.

However, each to his or her own, and there’s no doubt that this is a great boat to manoeuvre around marinas- the visibility up top is fantastic, and it makes life easy when you are anchoring as you are so close to the person up front on the windlass.

Living Space

As with most Lagoons, the big story here is living space which is huge. In addition to the fly-bridge where there is lots of lounging space aft of the wheel, there’s a small forward cockpit for sun-downers on the hook and a spacious area aft, under the fly-bridge. We love the central window at the front of the saloon which opens right up so that the inside and outside forward cockpit are connected. Just make sure you close it when you are under way.

She has a sofa across the transom plus a folding a table and an L-shaped sofa. On the starboard side you’ll find a big sun-lounger.

Head into the saloon, and you’ll walk into the spacious galley (a big improvement on the 450 this) next to the door and sliding window. There’s a nav station port forward and another dining table which you can use in bad weather. The forward window which slides down onto the foredeck is a nice evolution from the older model.

Down below, VPLP’s chines help to maximise living space above the waterline. Even up ­forward, the forward berth is a full-size island queen, so no more fighting about the cabins when you board. The accommodation on these boats is hard to beat, whether you go for the 3 cabin Owners or 4 cabin version. The cabins are light and spacious, with nice big heads and showers.

Generally, the 46 has more room than her predecessor thanks to her extra beam and and those chines that we’ve talked about. The galley in particular is a real improvement and the big story is the forward cabins which have has the same size beds as the aft cabins- again thanks to those chines- all the beds are semi walk around like in the aft cabin.

What is the price of a Lagoon 46? How much does this catamaran cost? That will depend on the kind of options you go for, but to give you an idea, the base price starts around €450k. Once you have added on the options, a typical price might be somewhere around €650k.

The 46 is a fine evolution from the 450 and I am sure that this is going to be another top seller for Lagoon. For comfort at this size it has few rivals except perhaps the Leopard 50 and the Fountaine Pajot range.

If you are going to get the most out of the 46, then you’ll want to at least go for a bit of solar , electric winches, water-maker, air conditioning, genset and the code zero. There’s also an option for a diving platform aft instead of davits. She’s a smart cruiser alright.

Lagoon 46: The mast is set aft… making a big step forward

The mast on the 46 is located 2m further aft than the traditional position on the forward bulkhead, making the boom shorter and manageable. The main is elevated for better profile performance, battens much higher and there is a self-tacking solent with a

The 110m² code 0 is a large sail which is very propulsive from just 2 knots of wind and it’s easy to use! So only 3 sails to cover every eventuality!

The new aft-set rig favors a better centering of weight and leaves a good distance free from the structure

The evolutionary steps allow for real beds, with lateral access in the forecabins, and the gull-wing shape prevents slamming

Folding table for 4-10 people, generous seat aft, outdoor kitchenette with fridge, sink and worktop, efficient serving station and through-light! All the attributes of a comfortable cockpit, according to Lagoon

The flybridge has been completely redesigned to reduce the impression of being over-elevated. The folding bimini is a great idea that allows you to use it when needed and just enjoy the sail plan the rest of the time. Beautiful seats, attractive sunbathin

The legibility of the deck plan is perfect and prevents any maneuvering errors. The large diameter steering wheel is leather-trimmed. The direct and sensitive transmission of the helm is one of the strong points of this boat.

New trendy upholstery, walnut cladding and forced ventilation by means of a sliding front bay window, associated with carefully designed and subtle lighting create the new atmosphere of the 46. The 8-10 person table makes a comeback

A superb galley (abundant light without glare), generous worktops, efficient cold storage, smart ergonomics. The hob is perfect for cooking for 6 people, but larger diameter burners would be desirable when preparing for 8 people. The screen in the middle

A private interior designer seems to have taken care of the personalization of "your" interior

The interior styling of the 46’s cabins is more luxurious than in previous models. A success!

The forecabins on the 46 defuse any debate when allocating who goes where (side access and 160cm beds). Also note the side view

The bathroom on the owner’s version... not bad, eh?

Rational and careful technical implementation, but little protection against possible spraying (unlikely, but ...) from the inside of the nacelle.

The 39 and the 52 showed the way back in 2013, but it was the 42 and the 40 that turned the idea of setting the rig further aft into a winning formula. The 46 now picks up on this experience to apply this idea (new to cruising boats, though not racing!) to the heart of the Lagoon range... the stakes are high!

A significant transformation!

At the time of writing, the 46 is not yet available on the market, but we had the chance to try Prototype #1 (there will be three, before going into production). It is due to replace (in June 2019) the 450 which has already broken the record of the most prolific catamaran in the world (746 Flybridge version and over a hundred S versions!). Why, then, do they need to replace such a successful model? Probably because after 10 years in existence, you need to renew to maintain potential interest, attraction, surprise and creative image. But also because the technical changes which began with the 42 , then the 40 can’t remain isolated features and are intended to be generalized across the entire range.

A rapidly evolving style

The 46 seems to be the product of synthesis of several simultaneous influences: The VPLP architecture which advocates a revolutionary rig and a more efficient centering of weight, and an enhanced exterior design. This is the result of the collaboration with Patrick le Quément (a great designer in the automotive industry) and the interior style by Nauta which highlights Lagoon’s desire for a more luxurious feel and ever more s...

If you are searching for a catamaran with amazing sailing performance and enough space for you and your friends, be sure to check out the Lagoon 46. Find out why she should be your holiday yacht in Yacht4Less’s comprehensive review below.

A sailing holiday is all about that special and liberating feeling. That is why the interior of the Lagoon 46 is very open, making you feel as if you are one with the ocean. Lagoon promises to keep designing catamarans with bright saloons and 360 panoramic views so you can enjoy the colorful scenery wherever you are on board.

The U-shaped galley was designed so that socializing with friends at the aft cockpit while cooking is very easy. The galley comes with a 4 burner stove, dishwasher, lots of storage, and most importantly, enough refrigerators to keep all of your food and drinks coolled. Did you know that the Lagoon 46 has also got a sliding large front window which allows you to easily pass on drinks to friends at the bow as well?

The cabins are very spacious, offering more than enough storage for all belongings. One of the many beautiful and new characteristics which this catamaran model offers is that all beds (in both aft and bow cabins) are the same size - queen beds.

She is a 5-star hotel floating on water. No matter which version you choose (3 or 4 cabin version), each cabin has its own bathroom and toilet.

The 3 cabin owners version has an enormous owner's cabin on the starboard side, with 2 same size cabins on the port side. The 4 cabin version has 4 large cabins.

We decided to divide the exterior into 3 parts and give you a walkthrough of each. These are the places you will mostly be staying at while on board, so let's get into detail:

• Flybridge - the bench seat is large enough for the skipper and guests to be together while sailing. The wide cushions on the flybridge can be transformed into a seating or tanning area, making this area very customizable. The views from up here are the best, so if you are looking for the best place to relax on board, it would most definitely be there. 
• Bow cockpit - typical for a Lagoon catamaran, you will find the nets connecting the two hulls of the boat. With a large seating area for socializing, there is a newly added small coffee table where you can enjoy a glass of wine when anchored in a relaxing and calm bay. 

Even though she is a 46, the overall length is just under 46’, 45'11'' (13.99m). Her beam is 7.96m and her draft is 1.35m. This allows for anchoring in more shallow waters closer to the beach. This model is often equipped with a watermaker, in which case guests do not have to stress about water at all. She can accommodate up to 12 people so the size of the water tanks (2x300l) is more than sufficient. With 2 fuel tanks, each holding up to 520l of fuel, guests are spared of searching for fuel stations during their holiday as enough fuel fits for a weeks worth of sailing. 

The Lagoon 46 has 2 single cabins at the bow which can be used by the crew (skipper and hostess or cook), or a small child. Find out more about skippered charters , and fully crewed charters . If you prefer to sail with a professional crew, Yacht4Less can help you find your charter crew. 

As she is lighter than her predecessors, she is able to reach higher speeds. Under power with the standard 2x57 HP engines, she can go up to 8.5 knots if you really push her. Usually you will go up to 7 knots and will still be able to enjoy the noticeable quieter engines. 

Under sails, she can go up to 13 knots. Lagoon 46 has the mast moved backwards towards the aft, allowing for more stable and less rocky sailing, minimizing the ‘‘up-and-down’ feeling. As she is a big and powerful catamaran, sailing is made easier with her self tacking jib. 

Depending on the time of year, charter prices range from €5400 (£4500) in pre and post season, and up to €12000 (£10000) in high season in Croatia. Prices in Greece and Italy this year are very similar, ranging from €6000 (£5050) to €11,500 (£9600). Keep in mind that these are bareboat prices. Skipper, crew, and extras can be ordered additionally. In high season, daily skippers rates can range from €180 to €200 (average £160), and daily hostesses rates from €120 to €150 (average £110) per day.

This beauty is not only spacious and comfortable, she offers impressive designs throughout the interior and exterior. The salon is large and airy, the designs are modern and the layout makes the boat very functional. Each part of the catamaran was designed to perfection and space was used up wisely, creating the ideal catamaran for your sailing holiday.

Comments from Lagoon 46 charterers

Overall a fantastic experience for all. The Lagoon 46 worked perfectly for 4 couples, with ample options for seating and escaping with a book…fantastic…. The Navigation being top deck with a roof and seating all around was absolutely fantastic also, a feature of the Lagoon over other designs I think.

Adam, New Zealand, June 2023

The Lagoon 46 was the best catamaran we have chartered. There was plenty of deck and seating space and all the bedrooms/ensuites were a good size

.carousel-cell { width: 50%; /* full width */ } .sc-carousel, section .sc-carousel { margin-top: 0; } Rating: 5 / 5 The Lagoon 46 was the best catamaran we have chartered. There was plenty of deck and seating space and all the bedrooms/ensuites were a good size. Preveza was a great starting point and we enjoyed travelling south to Ithaki and north to Paxi. Kalamos was a highlight we tied up to a pier next to a taverna for the night and it was a lovely spot. We had very good service from Robert and Sue at Yachting Holidays and dealing with an NZ company gave us peace of mind. The service from Fyly in Greece was also excellent. We really appreciated being able to board the boat early and our skipper was also very friendly and easy to get along with. Our skipper Adrian Dimitru was keen to get away on Saturday afternoon so we headed south and got a day ahead which was great. .he cruise was excellent and Adrian got us to some of his favourite spots so we were very lucky. Ithaki not to be missed. Craig, New Zealand, Oct 18th, 2023

Rating: 5 / 5 The boat was in good condition and everything worked. I have done 21 bare boat holidays all over the world and rate Montenegro the best destination we have been to. Service was very good. Very impressed with the provisioning. Our list, and what was not on the list, was questioned - demonstrating they had given thought to what we ordered. I would have liked a bit more info re the marinas prior to the trip. Although English was a bit of an issue every WhatsApp we sent with a query during our trip was answered promptly - the best support we have had. Giam, Australia, Jun 27th, 2023

The Lagoon 46 has been designed to offer maximum space and comfort on board, without sacrificing performance and ease of handling.

Below, we analyze its main features that make it stand out in the luxury catamaran market.

Space and layout

One of the advantages of catamarans over monohull sailboats is the additional space they provide. The Lagoon 46 has an optimized layout that maximizes the use of space in its three main areas: the salon, the cabins and the deck area.

The Lagoon 46’s spacious salon is a bright and welcoming space, thanks to its large panoramic windows. The living area features comfortable sofas and a dining table, creating a perfect environment to relax or enjoy a meal with family or friends.

The fully equipped galley is located on one side of the salon, allowing easy interaction with the dining area and offering everything you need to prepare delicious meals on board.

The Lagoon 46 offers multiple cabin configurations, adapting to the needs of each owner.

The standard version has three cabins: a master suite and two double cabins, all with private bathrooms.

In addition, there is the option of a four-cabin configuration with four bathrooms, ideal for those who wish to charter the catamaran or sail with a larger group.

The cabins are spacious, bright and have plenty of storage, ensuring maximum comfort during your stay on board.

The Lagoon 46 stands out for its generous outdoor areas, allowing you to enjoy the marine environment to the fullest.

The main deck features a large bow sundeck, perfect for sunbathing or relaxing while sailing.

At the stern, the spacious cockpit offers a sheltered and versatile area, with a large table, seating and direct access to the salon.

Comfort and finishes

The Lagoon 46 is distinguished by its attention to detail and the quality of the materials and finishes used.

Wood, leather and high quality fabrics combine to create a sophisticated and cozy atmosphere throughout the catamaran.

The air conditioning system, both in the common areas and in the cabins, ensures a comfortable temperature at all times, regardless of the weather outside.

In addition, the Lagoon 46 has an advanced acoustic insulation system, reducing the noise of the engine and the environment, allowing you to enjoy a calm and quiet navigation.

The balance between these characteristics is fundamental to ensure safe and enjoyable sailing in all weather and sea conditions.

This configuration makes it possible to take full advantage of wind power, reaching speeds in excess of 10 knots in favorable conditions.

In addition to its performance under sail, the Lagoon 46 also offers good speed under power thanks to its two high-efficiency diesel engines.

These engines provide a cruising speed of approximately 8 knots, with sufficient range for long journeys.

Maneuverability

Maneuverability is another crucial aspect of a catamaran’s performance, and the Lagoon 46 does not disappoint in this regard. Its design and configuration make it easy to maneuver even in tight spaces and difficult conditions.

The Lagoon 46’s rudder and control systems are designed to provide fast and precise response.

The elevated position of the rudder on the flybridge allows panoramic visibility, which facilitates navigation and maneuvering.

In addition, the catamaran is equipped with a hydraulic steering system, which ensures smooth and precise control of the boat at all times.

The Lagoon 46 also features a propulsion system with folding propellers, which minimizes water resistance when under sail and improves maneuverability under engine.

The proximity of the engines to the hulls and the configuration of the propellers make it easier to control the boat in docking or mooring situations, even in adverse wind and current conditions.

In short, the Lagoon 46 Catamaran offers excellent performance in terms of speed and maneuverability, making it an ideal choice for both experienced sailors and those just starting out in the world of sailing.

The combination of its aerodynamic design, optimized sail system, powerful diesel engines and hydraulic steering system ensures an agile and safe sailing experience in any conditions.

In addition, the Lagoon 46 is a catamaran that adapts to different sailing styles, from coastal sailing to long ocean voyages.

Lagoon 46 catamaran (2020) 'As You Wish'

The cockpit is spacious and well thought out. When the cockpit table is not in use, the leaves fold down and there is an ingenious sliding seat that folds beneath the table, allowing access from the cockpit to the flybridge on the port side. There is also access to the flybridge from the starboard side.

Additionally, in the cockpit, there is a sink, front-loading fridge, and plenty of storage on the starboard side. To port, there is an extensive countertop with a built-in icebox.

The saloon of the Lagoon 46 catamaran is spacious and sumptuous. The galley is exceptional with copious counter space and storage, with a big sliding window that opens to the cockpit.

Natural light streams through the wrap-around vertical windows, and there’s a retractable sash window forward for maximum ventilation as well as passing drinks to the forward cockpit. Sinking into the saloon settees, you have to remind yourself you are on a yacht.

Fully air-conditioned, with a generator, extensive fridge, and freezer space – this cat is designed for easy living.

In the hulls, there are 4 cabins, all with en-suite electric heads and showers.  Berths are large doubles in all cabins. Bountiful storage in hanging lockers and cupboards leaves cabins clear of clutter.

Large, fixed hull windows with opening portlights bring natural light in abundance and great ventilation.

There are two single berths in the bows, accessed from the deck.

Under sail, the Lagoon 46 catamaran has a high aspect mainsail, with a traveller adjusted using an electric captive winch, making for easy sail handling and manoeuvring as well as optimized performance.

The mast step positioned further aft reduces pitching and allows a larger self-tacking jib, which is set on a curved track for added smoothness through the tack or gybe.

The narrower hulls below the waterline create less drag, but with a hull chine, there is no compromise to interior space, so better performance and better accommodation!

With electric winches where needed, autopilot, and the latest B&G navigation equipment, she can be sailed comfortably short-handed. With cable steering, the helm feedback is excellent.

Up forward the transition from the trampoline to the forward cockpit area is flush, with no stepping down, and the cowling for the anchor windlass makes a great tabletop.

Under power, she is smooth and responsive. The upgraded Yanmar 57 HP diesel pushes her under power comfortably at over 8 knots cruising speed.

All the heritage, tradition, and quality of Lagoon have been encapsulated in the Lagoon 46, and with advanced design performance and superior comfort, you are assured of a sensational sailing vacation.

If you would like to buy a Lagoon 46 catamaran, for private use or for placing in our highly regarded  charter fleet  in the Caribbean or would simply like to learn more about this or another  Lagoon model,  email Robin Hodges:  [email protected].

Would you like to check availability on this Lagoon 46? Submit a  Request Form  and we will advise straight away!

Find Your Rate Check out our special offers

Did you know Horizon’s charters start and finish at noon? This means we can get you out sailing your first afternoon after your briefings – remember to watch your video briefings to speed up your check out! At the end of your trip, you sail back to Nanny Cay to refuel and debrief before your noon departure. This gives you a full 6 nights/7 days chartering around our beautiful islands, unlike some companies that start at 5pm, meaning you will have to sleepaboard* at the docks, and then finish at 10am, again meaning you will probably have to stay overnight on the docks the night before you leave to fly home.

*If available, a sleep aboard can be added the night before your charter start for a small supplement, boarding your yacht after 5pm.

Our standard charter rates are applicable for charters of 5 days or more up to a maximum of five weeks. For a tailored quote for charter durations outside this range please contact our reservations team who will be pleased to assits.

Current Rates

Weekly rates (full 7 days / 6 nights) are listed above as daily rates. Charters start and finish at noon. Our minimum charter duration requirement is 5 nights.

Super Size your Dinghy

Why not upgrade your yacht tender during your sailing vacation? Get the crew ashore in style and explore more with an upgraded tender. Only $300 per day. Find out more here .

Super Tender your Vacation with Horizon Yacht Charters!

Licensed for 6 persons, this 15ft RIB with 60HP Yamaha outboard will get you and your crew to snorkelling spots and the beach in style and comfort.

Make your charter yacht vacation a breeze – enjoy the comfort of being able to tie up your yacht for the night and then continue exploring the surrounding bays! You can pick up your mooring ball at the Bight and then head to the Indians or the Caves for a snorkel. If you visit the Dogs, there’s no need to choose only one snorkel spot for your lunch stop, zip around them all!  A swim ladder makes boarding easy from the water.

For popular spots where it’s trickier to find a mooring, the RIB is the perfect alternative. Settle into Great Harbour, Jost Van Dyke for the night and then take the RIB to White Bay for the afternoon to enjoy painkillers without the hassle of finding a mooring ball or having to move your yacht for the night.

The North Sound boasts a selection of some of the best dining options in the BVI. There’s no need to settle for only one spot when you have the RIB. Pick up provisions from Leverick Bay, enjoy the plunge pool at Nova in Deep Bay, and then zip back to the sound for sundowners at Saba Rock before enjoying dinner at The Bitter End.

If you have a mix of snorkelers, beachgoers, shoppers and sailors onboard then give your group flexibility by taking the standard dinghy included in your charter as well. This will also remove the need to make multiple dinghy trips ashore for larger groups.
